1. Asbestos Control Program Violations in New York City
A recent report from the Environmental Working Group indicates that during the period
1999 to 2013 more than 12,000 New Yorkers lost their lives to an asbestos-caused
disease — one of the highest totals in the country.
Asbestos is a deadly mineral, and understanding how and where New Yorkers might be
exposed to it is critical.

2. The map below is intended for New Yorkers who are concerned that they, or their loved ones, risk their lives at
work each day by working around asbestos and asbestos-containing products.
If you live or work in one of the five boroughs of New York City:
Brooklyn
The Bronx
Queens
Manhattan
Staten Island
Review the map to see if your company, or a company managing a site where you worked, has violated asbestos
laws that could have resulted in unwittingly exposing employees and residents to the toxic mineral.
Data on the map reflects cases of violations of asbestos handling laws throughout the five boroughs.
Violations include:
failure to properly contain asbestos
using uncertified workers (or those who are not trained in proper handling of the deadly material)
falsely reporting the level of asbestos present
improper containment or removal of asbestos
Any of these illegal practices could result in the release of asbestos into the air where it can be inhaled or
ingested - leading to a lifetime risk of developing an asbestos-related disease.
Asbestos is so toxic even small amounts of the mineral and infrequent exposure can lead to asbestos-related
diseases.
